Now my sin is going for World cup, jst dun bet too much.

Tomorrow , going to buy Brazil win 1 pay 4.5.

Not bad . accordingly to history-- Brazil won 1994, miss 1998, won 2002, miss 2006 won 2010

Not difficult to predict! Hoot tua tua. ok buy  1 lot.

Subprime crisis has made many investors to become 'Bearish' for the rest of their live.

Ironically, to them, any Rally is a 'TRAP',  any sell down , they  rejoice .  BUT, they are anticipating  to have a bright and better life and stay employed and be able to enjoy good life and leave the subprime far beind them.

That 9 months rally was just a full blown bear trap if your eyes looks at a seven year horizon.

When dust settled, it will be crystal clear, just dun invest with leverage cos it will be a suicide mission.

Good luck and heng heng.

Ha ha, talking about worry, AK got one last nite.

At kopotiam, saw fire brigade n ambulance rushing to my block carpark lot. My frd, staying my next block, asking me to take a look. As many people also ruching towards the blocks, I went loh.

Saw a fireman ledder placed at the window of second floor of a block just near my one. Thought fire! By standers blur. Later heard some loud knocking sound. Sensed something fishy, rush up to the floor, some policemen/women n SCDF people crowding at a hse door. SCDF were trying to break the door. Incidentally, heard the policewoman asking a young man standing stunt at the floor area. And realising that got woman attempted suicide in the hse, n the hse was locked fr inside. Strange, noted the young man was informed by the attempted suicide woman husband, then he was calling fr a hotel. Alamah, family problem, guesses loh.

Took sometime to break the metal grill door n the thick wooden door. As they needs to break both hinges of the metal grill door n the firmly locked wooden door. I told myself why didn't they break the glass window n go into the hse then? As the aluminium grill can be esily broken even with bare hand mah. Dare not to speak out lah, no speaking right mah. May be the authority got better reason loh?

The woman was found coma lying at the main hall of the hse. She was sent to NUH. Not sure the outcome, as no news was published in today''s paper.

The moral of the story is, cherish own life, as god not given anyhow. And think of the consequences. Whatever great grivences, render asst first loh, to save life. Just dun understand the husband act, pity the woman n families.

People worry that if Greece is Bear Stearns, Portugal is Lehman and Spain AIG," BNP Paribas said during the past week, a phrase that gained much circulation.

If history repeat itself, the medium term bottom still has 6months to play out

Please declare your sins again from this week roller coaster

Encore

March 24 (Bloomberg)2010

A sense of despair pervades perceptions of the economy and nation. Barely one-in-three Americans say the country is on the right track. Fewer than one in 10 say they believe the economy will be strong again within a year. Just 4 percent of Americans who cut back on spending during the recession now say they are confident enough to open their wallets, according to the poll, which has a margin of error of plus or minus 3.1 percentage points.

Poll respondent Lynn Heath, 31, a Belleville, Illinois, stay-at-home mom with four children whose husband lost his job 18 months ago and since has only been able to find part-time work, says her family has nearly depleted its savings.

“We don’t have cable. We don’t have internet. I just learned how to make laundry soap. For $4, I can make two-and- half gallons,” Heath says.

The Obama Administration has made no progress over the past three months convincing the public that the $787 billion stimulus package passed last year either helped the economy or prevented greater deterioration. Only 37 percent of the public say they see positive effects, the same portion who said so in a December poll.

Economic Deterioration

Asked about a range of economic measures, people say they have seen deterioration over the past year: 54 percent say the condition of businesses in their community has worsened and 56 percent say the value of homes in their community dropped during the period.

Poll respondent Jim Buyer, 47, an electric utility lineman from Syracuse, Indiana, says that his impression of a worsening economy comes from cutbacks in overtime on his job and his observations as he drives to and from work along an industrial road that services home suppliers, toolmakers and recreational- vehicle manufacturers. Media reporting on the economy may be “slanted,” he says, and what he sees has greater credibility

Gong Xi Fa Cai.

Tiger Year 1974, 1986, 1998, 2010........

Learn from experience.

Be patience.

Every experience from your loss is a wake up call. Do not take it lightly.

Stock investing is business language i.e LONG TERM

Sin24) Gambling is short term, go to IR if you need to do it. Apply gambling in Stock investing is contrary to each other and spell doom.

Wish everyone Happy, Healthy and Huaterous Tiger 2010.

The next Tiger Year should see STI hit 5k. Huat ahhhhhhhh!!!!!

Whatever you call it,

penny always a penny

Blue chip is different class.

Panic selling means good opportunity but depends when you buy it.

If it is beginning of a bear , then you are buying very x.

But if it has lasted one year or so, then its a good buy.

It takes one year to break any lover's heart to dump its conviction to buy anymore.

And any shortists not to short anymore.

Haha, STI <2000 by 2011.

Huat ah. If this Jan is the beginning of a bear, then now buying is simply too early.

World cup has always shown that equity is a bad call. So keep low profile.

Beside its another Tiger YEar, rem Asian Crisis 98, Singapore 1st Recession 86, Oil Crisi 74,

Tia liao and xiu liao ma chia chia.

2010 European Crisis, how about that? sound matching to the missing puzzle in globalization

Remember Venture at near 50c? Remember Keppeland went to $1 during market crash. Remember Noble Group went down to near 45c during market crash?

I never see a blue chip arise from penny stock in Singapore.

Those that are that good already makun by other big fish

Penny stock only worth touching after a secular bear has ended and the near the final phase of a super bull run

Even then, do not throw your coffin money as it can turn around one day >10% and then never above water again. Eventually our penny stock will only become RTO in next super bull.
